Since 1952, Italy has been the patron of the Uil: more than fifty years of experience at the service of all citizens. In a changing social context, Italy has chosen not to limit its potential to the simple protection and assistance of the worker and the citizen. For some time now, its activity has also included the roles of social secretary and family counselor, an institution that today expresses new needs, which emerge in all cycles and moments of life. All the needs and problems related to each social category can find an answer and concrete help in Italy: maternity, old age, disability, relations with the bureaucracy, social exclusion, inclusion of non-European workers and their families.
Even before the approval of the law on the reform of sponsorship institutions, Italy has been at the forefront, offering those who turn to its offices information, technical assistance and concrete solutions in the field of :
— social security,
— social security, social security and taxation,
— labor and labor market,
— health and safety at work,
— family and inheritance law.
